BowERY BEACH
The largest dredging tow probably eyel
seen in these waters, consisting of three tue
boats, digger and eleven scows, passed the
Cape at 8 a. m. Sunday, heading toward Port
land.
Mackerel were evidently present off the
Cape Saturday and Sunday, as a fleet OF
some twenty seiners were observed in the
vicinity of Hue-and-Cry Shoal, all through
both days. A group of small boats, appar-
emily fishing with hand lines, was also seen
on the shoal.
The vacancy in this light house district,
caused by the death of Mr.. Hubbard, late
keeper of Portland Breakwater Light, will
probably result in several changes being
made among the keepers in the district.
1t was noticed that the new life-saying
house was opened to the inspection of the
public part of the day Sunday. Inquiry
ELECTED the information that a visitor repre-.
senting himself to be keeper of station on
Lake Michigan was provided with piece OF
metal of the proper form for opening the
doors.
Among the many visitors here Sunday, was
a carriage containing five persons, woman,
three men and child, all save the child Sc
beastly drunk that they could neither stand,
go nor speak. The child, little boy OF
about five years of age, was seen sobbing
piteously over the condition of his drunken
parents. After a time the party were got of
other people.

Atkinson House Furnishing Co.

The Atkinson House Furnishing Company
which succeeds to the business of the Maine
branch of the Boston house of b. A. Atkin-
son d Co., has been organized in this city to
do general house furnishing business. 1t
is stock company with a capital of $780,
600. Mr.. Isaac C.. Atkinson. who has so
successfully managed the affairs of the old
firm, is the president and manager, and Mr..
F. N. Deane the secretary and treasurer of
the company. This organized effort on
cooperative basis was rendered imperative
by the increasing trade throughout the
State, which necessarily gave rise to widely
scattered accounts. To obviate this latter
difficulty branch stores will be established at
Bangor, Augusta, Bath, Saco, Calais, Bel
fast, Rockland, Lewiston and Auburn
Skowhegan, Eastport, Bddeford, Water
vile, Norway, Cumberland Mills, and
Rochester, N. H., with Portlan as the gov
erning centre. The par value of the stock is
$40 per share, and is sold only ON applica-
ton to the company. Several alterations in
the company's Offices here are in process OF
completion which will add to the effective
ness of its working force.

Dredging Back Say.

The dredging machines-a digger and elev-
en- scows-have arrived and begun work in
Back Bay, near the sluice in the marginal
way. between Tukey's bridge and Portland
A ship channel is to be dug parallel to the
marginal way, which will be about 70 feet
wide on the bottom and 80 feet wide at the
low water mark. The water in the channel
will be about II feet deep at low tide, and
some q feet deep at high tide. The channel
will follow the marginal way around the
bay to within short distance Of behring's
bridge, and over 10000 cubic yards of solid
material will be removed The enterprise is
commercial one, yet it may serve a double
purpose. The present contract will only
suffice to make channel about one-fifth as
large as it is intended eventually to have it.
1t will be some 100 feet beyond and parallel
to the present channel, which was dug by
the city from behring's bridge across the bay
parallel to the marginal way.
The mud removed in making the channel
is to be towed some four miles from Tukey's
bridge and dumped into the sea.
There are some seventy acres between the
marginal way and the course to be taken by
the channel. This space will eventually be
filed in and the land thus made sold. Streets
have already been planned, and undoubtedly
when the new ship channel is completed
wharves will be built upon ii and new conn.,
mercial enterprises started in that part of
the city

aged respectively II and Is years. They
tore down the chimney, but were unable to
get out that way, therefore they took out a
rod from their iron bedstead, and by chip
ping out some of the mason work around the
door they pried back the bolts and were free
from the confinement of the cell. Then a
ruse was put up on the jailer The young
horse thief, aged 10 summers, who occupied
the other cell, was induced to make believe
sick and to raise the jailer. Mr. Parker in

sick boy. He did not lock the gate or door
after him, as he supposed the other bad boys
were secure in their cell. The kind-hearted
jailer hears rustlihg and thinks he is fol-
lowed by his wife. He turns to welcome
her, and as he does so he sees the truant Jail
breakers running down the stairs, and they
are soon lost in the darkness. They take a

An Augusta commercial man Just from
Rangeley lakes tells of traveller who was
driving along road in those parts early one
evening, recently, when bear and two cubs
trotted across the path, frightening the horse
so that the carriage was nearly capsized. The
driver at once proceeded to a neighboring
farmhouse, and, obtaining gun, hurried to
the point where bruin was seen, accompanied
by the farmer carrying a lantern, and his
dog. After travelling about in the darkness
and peering into all sorts of by-ways and
corners, the farmer suddenly pointed into a
clump of bushes, exclaiming, There he is
shoot him." The hunter, looking in the di-
rection of the bushes, saw. some object NOV
ing about. 1t was but the work of an instant
fer him to raise his shooting iron, aim and
blaze away. With great expectations the two
nlmrods rurhed forward to secure their game ;
10! the dog was found in the throes of death,
having been taken for the bear. The farmer
carried the remains of poor Tray home, the
traveller strobe listlessly back to the farm.
